Click here to read Will Cooper's blog Will Cooper is a 7th Generation Texan, born in Tom Green County about forty seven years ago to two good parents on a working ranch.
My roots are planted so deeply in this Texas soil I’m not sure even a good Saturday night bath can clean all of it from between my toes. My family goes back to one of my great grandfathers was one of the handful of survivors of the Goliad Massacre by General Santa Anna after he defeated those few brave men at the Alamo. The Cooper clan, like so many others, drifted over from England and Europe seeking a better way of life. My bunch found it in the rich land of West Texas where a man’s will is tougher than a mesquite stump.
I tried my hand at being a rodeo cowboy, played some football, but had too many broken bones and my love for art pushed me in this direction. Besides, it SURE beats working for a living. A friend suggested I give this eBay thing a shot. According to him there are some eighty million people looking at stuff on eBay each year. That’s almost as many horse flies as we have in the summer out here in west Texas.
If you win a piece of mine and for any reason don’t think it works for you then send it back and I'll get your money back in your hands faster than smoke through a key-hole. If you do like what I paint then tell others and keep on buying. the painting.
These paintings are done in oils and unless you do something dumb like run over one with your pickup it will last you 450 years or a lot longer. In short you will get your money’s worth. That is my goal. I want only happy collectors.
I seldom answer emails. I’m not much at writing on one of these dang computer machines. I’ll answer your questions as long as they don’t meddle with my private life. The answers might be short but I won’t cut the quality of your painting. I’m here to see if my buddy is correct. That an old, broken down cowboy can master this new fangled thing called eBay and earn a good living. May you always have the wind at your back and the blue sky overhead.

Ps, I don’t have a Website that I can hook you up to. I’m selling all I can paint so what do I need an expensive Website for?
